Upon examination, our vet saw little hope for Apache and leaned towards putting him down. He had only one chance, and that was to take injections in his hip which were extremely expensive and beyond Mylestone's means. A very kind and generous sponsor was willing to help Apache to see if the medication could improve his condition and save his life. Because we've seen a noticeable improvement we have reason to believe that he soon will not need these intensive treatments and can be maintained. He also came to us with mange, and has been treated for that as well as ulcers from his long bout of stress and pain.

Apache now lives happily with his own small - miniature, actually - herd, Patty and Lucy.

Apache has found a new life with Mylestone, but will need ongoing care to keep him comfortable. To see such hope in his eyes - a horse who knew such intense suffering for two years - is what convinced us to try. Won't you help fulfill his hopes, too, and sponsor Apache?
